TY - JOUR PY - 2014// TI - The effect of hospital care on early survival after penetrating trauma JO - Injury epidemiology A1 - Clark, David E. A1 - Doolittle, Peter C. A1 - Winchell, Robert J. A1 - Betensky, Rebecca A. SP - 24 EP - 24 VL - 1 IS - 1 N2 - The effectiveness of emergency medical interventions can be best evaluated using time-to-event statistical methods with time-varying covariates (TVC), but this approach is complicated by uncertainty about the actual times of death. We therefore sought to evaluate the effect of hospital intervention on mortality after penetrating trauma using a method that allowed for interval censoring of the precise times of death.
